How to Make mIRC Identd Work on a ZyXEL P-660R-D1 Home Router

June 15, 2008 · Posted in How To · 3 Comments 

Ok first, what’s Identd?

Identd or Ident daemon is a program that listens on port 113 that helps identify the users of a particular TCP Connection. In my knowledge, Idents are usually used on *nix systems. If you have experienced using *nix systems, and chatting on IRC, your ident will be your username. Well it depends on the system.

Anyways, let’s get down to the point. I do enable Identd on my mIRC because of one reason, to be able to oper-up on the server which I have o:line at. Although Idents with a “~” prefix on it would be fine but I like my Ident without the prefix, much more professional for me.

I consider myself lucky and some of my officemates that got hired that day. But, for those trainees that were not chosen to not go online, man, Read more

Finally Transferred My Blog To a New Host!

June 11, 2008 · Posted in Personal · 2 Comments 

Whew, for almost two weeks, I’ve been trying to transfer my blog to a new host. It’s not that I don’t like my old host, it’s just that my old host doesn’t have fsock(); PHP function opened, and it is very important for WordPress and its Plugins to have that enabled.

To those who doesn’t know what fsock(); is, it’s a PHP function that is needed by WordPress to get information on other websites to your blog, like updates and some ads that is needed to be accessed via fsock();. Akismet Plugin for instance, it needs to access the WordPress.com site for your API key to work, and if fsock(); is disabled, those kinds of Plugins won’t work.
